[On the most French thing about himself] Probably smoking after the gym. Although, wait, I don't want to encourage people to smoke.

[about Emily in Paris' portrayal of French stereotypes] As a French person, I wasn't offended. I think it's funny. Nothing we do is serious. We're not sending rocket ships to space or solving world hunger. It's entertainment. It's escapism. A stereotype is never born from nothing. Everything in the show is amplified because it's Darren Star's universe, but it's true. French people smoke after the gym. They have breakfast wine. They complain a lot. It's part of the charm.

[when asked what's his party trick, by Harper's Bazaar ] I like to fall asleep everywhere. I'm constantly tired.

[about traveling a lot as a child] We never lived for more than two years in a city. So, I've always had this new kid status. Each time we moved, I studied people so I would be able to fit in really quickly.

[on how he would market Emily in Paris to other men] When I watched Sex in the City, there's a lot of things I didn't know. And it's part of why I loved it. As you grow up in a patriarchal society with toxic masculinity, nobody tells you what women think and what they feel and what is right or wrong sexually or in a relationship. And to see it in a show that is so honest and unapologetic is a good teacher. So to begin to understand women, maybe we need to enjoy what they entertain themselves with.
